Magical Ponies 0/96 (17 overs)

Magical Ponies theasas
Top Order: competent woeful

Lower Order: abysmal worthless

Spin Bowling: mediocre useless
Fielding: woeful feeble

MOTM is Chillingworth

Very happy with that win, should really help with the team's fitness as it was on TIE.

Edit: Looking at the other teams in my league, it seems that Wonnacott, the spinner in the Australian squad must be a decent bat too. He's first drop for the team and opens the bowling.

Lost the toss and was put in

Made 310-3 which im reasonably happy with. They have two good batters from memory, with one player having wages of 5k though his a wicketkeeper to i think

 

[ash chaulk]

i believe i made a good total with my new opener scoring 70

they are chasing and my bowlers arnt doing enough

End of Over 11: 73-0, runrate=6.64, reqrunrate=4.74 (257-5)

Laconically lazy 1/101 from 20 overs (RR 5.05, RRR 4.60)
Edwards 49* (66)
Garricks 47* (53)

Apart from running out one of the openers first ball, we've been terirble. Not looking good, seeing as my Proficient bowler failed to take a wicket in his first set of 5. Still, I was 1/120 after 20, so it's not that bad.

 

[GotSpin]

Wish my bowlers would pick up their game

 

[GotSpin]

Going to be tight, they need 80 from 10 with their gun batsmen out and only a competant or mediocre in

 

[Cloete]

End of Over 34: 113-8, runrate=3.32
Moodley 7-2-9-0
Mohammed* 9 (13 balls)
Govender 55 (105 balls)

Should be an easy chase, shame Moodley can't buy a wicket today though.

Great. The Australian NT member took five wickets in his match. The team had a rating of sensational for spin! And another team in my league has a super top order!

And, it turns out, one of the teams has the captain of the Australian U19 squad...

 

[brenoevo]

Won by 147 runs. An opening partnership of 324 set up the match.

[GotSpin]

A feeble and mediocre batsmen are hitting my bowlers around. I just dont understand why

Laconically lazy win by 4 wickets.

Nooo... I can't get promoted now. It's depressing, being 1 game into the season and knowing that you have no way of being promoted.

[GotSpin]

I don't belive this. They scored 80 runs to win, with mediocre and feeble batsmen. Ratings should tell the story though

 

[GotSpin]

Hmm i wonder why i lost..

[GotSpin]

Should be a close cup game though, similiar ratings but has slightly better bowling. Will be GFI because i will be able to TIE my next league game

 

[mikeW]

Had my first win of the season, would like to get my ratings up though.

I don't really see the point in playing on GFI in a cup match. I figure there's no way I'm going to get to Round 3 or 4, so I'm setting myself up to lose my next match, increase my fitness and concentrate in the league.

 

[PY]

On TIE, I got 267/9 off 50 but think I'm going to get flogged by this lot batting wise.

30/1 off 5 thus far.

yeah thats an idea, I could Tie in my cup match- effectively losing and then TIE in my league match getting my fitness up nicely. But my members and supports and morale would go down if i lose the cup match.

Does Fitness go down if you play on normal? Or will it stay up as long as you dont' GFI

 

[PY]

They need 8 an over for the next 12 overs and 3 wickets in hand. I can see them making this.
